If you’ve ever researched your own path to better health in the face of a sobering diagnosis you’ll identify with Nikki Cooper’s story. A busy lawyer/financier and self-confessed fitness fanatic, she was diagnosed with MS in 2009. But rather than sit back and accept what might be, she embarked on a two-year health mission with the help of nutritionists and pharmacists.
Enter Inner Me, Nikki’s new range of intelligent formulas in pretty packaging which make taking supplements simpler…
Sealed in slim, day-numbered pop-out packs, Lustrous Locks capsules contain MSM “the beauty mineral” (a nutritional form of sulphur and essential for the formation of collagen, elastin, cartilage and keratin) plus Vitamin C, Iron, Silica and the super-antioxidant N-Acetyl-Cysteine.
You’ll also find MSM in Beautify Me – this multi-tasking formula contains Silica, Vitamin C, Marine Chondroitin and Marine Collagen making it a great all-round hair, nail and skin booster.
We also liked the Super Strength Omega 3, 30 x 1,000mg fish oil capsules in a cute resealable pouch. Our bodies can’t produce Omega 3 so it’s an important anti-inflammatory “daily” to help combat dry skin and calm psoriasis, protect the heart and lower cholesterol. If your skin’s looking less than radiant, try taking Omega 3 for a month or two to see if you notice a pretty significant difference. Also the typical UK/US diet tends to Omega 6-heavy in terms of “omega ratio” – we take in too much Omega 6 compared to Omega 3, so it’s the Omega 3 we really need to top up on.
Inner Me’s other formulas include Blooming Baby Marvellous, Tranquility, Vitamin C and Vitamin D. The chances of us getting our yearly Vitamin D supply from a few months of UK sunshine in summer are seriously slim – let’s face it, the British sun is a rare phenomenon in winter compared to, say, LA or Sydney. Yes, Vitamin D is good for bones but more interestingly, it’s now emerging as a crucial vitamin for hypothyroidism by some cutting edge endocrinologists in the US and it has also been trialled for depression. Last but not least, the Vitamin B Complex can help fight fatigue, calm nerves and would be the one to have on hand if you’ve been under a lot of stress and/or feel a bit wiped out.
